"Ne craignez querelles, mais cherchent des aventures."
 "Never fear quarrels, but seek adventures." 
The Three Musketeers by Alexander Dumas pere 1802-1870

 Manoy worked at Iloilo Province Capitol from 1975 to 1978 before coming to Canada. He investigated shady labor recruiters for the Middle East and ‘treasure hunters’ looking for the fabled WW II Yamashita treasure. The recruiters and the hunters were conmen fleecing the town folks who want their children to work abroad. It usually meant that the families have to sell the water buffalos used to till the farms in order to pay the recruiters, which is a bummer if you are a farmer. When the applicants get conned they end up in “Saudi Sarabia”, euphemism for a short plane trip to Cebu International. The treasure hunters sold shares for a hole in the ground with no gold, only stagnant and muddy waters. When the conmen are arrested new conmen take their places  and the evil cycle continues.

Gitano studied at MIT HS Kabacan, KNCHS class 1967, MSU Marawi Batch 1967,  and graduated college from NDMC in 1973. He has relatives in Signal Hill, Cotabato City; Malapag, Carmen, North Cotabato; Kibawe, Bukidnon; Marbel, &  Gensan, South Cotabato; and Davao City.

Hombre hung out with Major  Sam of the 4Masyu band, and Cap Simoy of the 4aMIGos band at Camp Evang, CdO in 1974. He met Baron, Abdul, Chabacano, Raffy, Bay Abas, Hudas, Satanas, Cat, Jack & Jake, Shaft Malabang, and many other color full figures in Sam’s and Cap’s merry bands of marauders. Hombre passed an integree exam and was offered a  chance by Cap to start a life that would have led to a star studded career but Hombre declined, and decided  to come to Canada instead in  1978 and did not regret it even though his classmates have now retired with  stars on their shoulders.

Manoy, Gitano, and Hombre are descendants of one of the three oldest clans in RP. In 1849 Spanish Gov Gen Claveria decreed that natives of the Filipinas colony, henceforth  use surnames. Only the descendants of the three native chiefs i.e. Lacandola, Humabon, and Tupas,* were allowed to retain their names, dating back to 1521 when Fernando Magallanes landed in Cebu.  Manoy, Gitano, and Hombre  belong to the Third Clan.


The  clan have relatives all over Visayas and Mindanao.  The clan count an ex-senator  from Davao City; an ex-congressman from Roxas City; an ex-governor, an ex-vice governor, two incumbent congressmen, an incumbent senator, an incumbent town mayor, all from Iloilo province; an incumbent governor and retired AFP CoS from Negros Occidental, an ex-PNP director general  from Luzon  as prominent relatives.  Other professions of members of the clan include lawyers, doctors nurses and the military.  Numerous cousins reside in cities all over North America and Europe.

Sundancer & Juan  met all the member-friends at the CFAR campings, bivouacs and long trips in the boonies, the wilderness and neighborhood houses in Canada.

  1. Get visas on your own, OFWs told

    MANILA, Philippines—Overseas job seekers need not hire immigration consultants who charge them exorbitant fees to obtain a working visa, the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) said.

    The POEA issued the rejoinder, particularly to Filipinos looking for jobs in Canada.

    “Even without a consultant, your application will be processed if all the required documents are in order,” said POEA Administrator Hans Leo Cacdac.

    Free information about working in or migrating to Canada is available on the website cic.gc.ca/english/index-can.asp, Cacdac said.

    The POEA chief, however, issued a warning against a firm looking to hire Filipinos for Canada without the proper permit.

    Cacdac said Canadian Provincial Nominee and Immigration Services Inc. (CPNIS), an immigration consultancy, was not authorized by the POEA to recruit Filipino workers.

    CPNIS, with address in the Philippines at Unit 2006 Orient Square, Emerald Avenue, Pasig City, last month put out a newspaper ad announcing 5,000 vacancies in Canada for engineers, computer programmers, medical workers and technicians.

    “Immigration consultants are required to obtain a license from the POEA before they may engage in recruitment and placement activities, regardless of the visa under which deployment shall be made,” Cacdac said.

    CPNIS, represented by a “Dr. Fereidon Alemi and Ashkan Alemi,” has schedules on its website of interviews for applicants in the cities of Pasig, Davao, Cebu, Baguio and Cagayan de Oro this month, the POEA said.

    The POEA cited Republic Act No. 8042, as amended by RA 10022, which states that offering overseas employment in the guise of visa assistance without the necessary license or authority from the POEA constitutes illegal recruitment.

    The POEA likewise warned prospective overseas Filipino workers about an e-mail invitation to a coaching session for a working visa interview.

    In an advisory posted on its official Facebook account, the POEA said the e-mail, which claims to be from “Extendicare Hospitals & Hospices,” was a scam and should be ignored.

    “If you received this e-mail inviting you to attend a ‘Working Visa Interview Coaching for the year 2013 on July 20 & 21, 2013,’ Please ignore it. This is a scam!” the POEA said.

    The e-mail, which the POEA posted on Facebook, indicated the sender was a “Deborah Bakti” who identified herself as the human resources vice president of Extendicare.

    E-mail recipients were told they were chosen for the position of staff nurse in Extendicare hospitals and hospices in Canada.

    However, the e-mail said, recipients must first attend a coaching for a working visa interview on July 20 and 21.

    The coaching fee was P3,800 and the e-mail recipients were instructed to remit the amount via wire transfer.

  3. These provinces are most popular with Canadian job seekers
    Canadian Business Magazine
    By Kate Wilkinson | Canadian Business – Wed, 12 Mar, 2014 9:29 AM EDT


    For Canadians looking for work outside their home province, one in particular is capturing the most interest from job hunters in the country. With its booming resource industry, you might have guessed that Alberta is the most commonly searched province for work opportunities in Canada.
    This is all according to Canadian job site Workopolis, which just released new data illustrating the prevalence of out-of-province job hunting in the country. An infographic demonstrating their findings has been reproduced below: (Graph in Website)

    The graphic shows the percentage of Workopolis users in each province who are searching for work away from home. The arrows point to which provinces they’re most interested in. The three Maritime provinces (Nova Scotia, P.E.I. and New Brunswick) seem to like Ontario as well as Alberta. Newfoundland and Labradorians, however, are looking to stay closer to home, preferring nearby New Brunswick.
    The largest percentages of out-of-province job searches are coming from up north. Nunavut has the highest rate of out-of-province Workopolis job searches in the country, at a staggering 87%.

    Ontarians, interestingly, display the highest amount of trepidation when it comes to looking for work outside their province. Just 6% of the job searches conducted by Ontarians on Workopolis have parameters set to look somewhere other than Ontario for work. Of those searches, the highest number are looking to find a job in Alberta. Albertans aren't too far behind either - just 7% are conducting out-of-province job searches, and most are looking to trade places with Manitobans.
    Workopolis president Kelly Dixon says her company has taken on the task of trying to educate Canadians, particularly Ontarians and other eastern residents, about opportunities for work outside their province. The company is "trying to generate some mobility to places where there are great employment options," Dixon says.
    Ontario, for example, has been relatively slow in creating new jobs over the last year, but Ontarians have continued to choose their local job market over opportunities elsewhere. In the coming months Workopolis will be unveiling a special project about Saskatchewan in order to create more awareness of career and "lifestyle opportunities" in other parts of Canada.
